Because the molecules in the solid are tightly packed nd in gases they are not tightly packed...nd they have very space as they could contain any object in it....!!!!!!!!

Is the force of attraction stronger in the molecules of a solid or liquid?

The force of attraction is generally stronger in the molecules of a solid compared to a liquid. In a solid, the molecules are closely packed and have limited movement, allowing for stronger intermolecular forces to hold them together. In a liquid, the molecules have more freedom to move, resulting in weaker intermolecular forces.


Which kind of force is a dipole -dipole force?

Intermolecular attraction


What is the intermolecular attraction of covalent bonds?

Small covalent molecules have a weak force of attraction.


What is the intermolecular force of CIF?

The intermolecular force of ClF is dipole-dipole interaction. This is because ClF is a polar molecule, with a significant difference in electronegativity between chlorine and fluorine causing a partial positive and partial negative charge, leading to attraction between the molecules.

What is a attraction between molecules of the same substance?

This is called an intermolecular force. It may be a van der Waals force, dipole-dipole attraction or a hydrogen bond.


What is the intermolecular force for Ar liquid?

Metallic bonding


Why do molecules at the surface of a liquid behave differently from molecules in the interior of the liquid?

In the interior the intermolecular forces of attraction is equal in all directions but the molecules at the surface of liquid experiences unequal intermolecular forces of attraction. the molecules at the surface are free so the adsorb liquid or gaseous molecules


Does the boiling point of a liquid decreases increases or stay the same if the intermolecular force increases?

Generally, the boiling point of a liquid increases if the intermolecular force, i.e. pressure, increases.


What is the intermolecular force of BF3?

The intermolecular force in BF3 is London dispersion forces. This is because BF3 is a nonpolar molecule, so the only intermolecular force it experiences is the temporary weak attraction between temporary dipoles.
